2025, what a year! Finished 2nd at the Zone 4.2 West African Championship, against the odds and qualified for the first ever African Super Zonals. Went on to win the Super Zonals and qualified for the FIDE Grand Swiss. Won my first-ever individual gold medal at the National Sports Festival🥇. Also won the whole event with my team, Oyo state! Traveled to Uzbekistan to compete against 11 of the world’s best grandmasters at the FIDE Grand Swiss. Participated and won my first Olojo chess festival in Ife, Osun state, got a picture next to the Ooni of Ife! Ended with a major highlight by becoming National Chess Champion 2025 🏆. Also crossing 2300 rating in classical chess! Grateful for the journey. Let’s do more in 2026!
